AgentSessionScanner.test.ts › "still reads the git identity of repositories next to a blocked one" flaked in CI (scan 1: expected [ …3 ] to deeply equal [ … ]). The test advanced the TestClock by the 2 s git-read deadline as soon as the blocked repo's FIFO config was opened. The two neighbouring repos' configs are read by real cat children that run at the same time, and each has its own deadline on that same clock. On a slow or loaded CI runner, where spawning and reaping those children takes longer, they were still running when the clock jumped. Their deadlines fired too, so they came back with git: { remoteKey: null, repository: null }.

Fix (test only). The test now wraps the real ProcessRunner and puts each neighbour config path on a Queue once its read returns. Each attempt waits for the blocked reader, then takes both neighbour completions, and only then advances the clock. The scanner itself is unchanged and needs no fix: in production each read's deadline runs on real time, so a stuck read cannot make its neighbours time out. Only a test clock that jumps past every pending deadline at once can.

Why it is deterministic now. The clock moves only after both neighbour reads have finished, whatever the runner's scheduling. I confirmed the race by making each neighbour's child sleep 300 ms before cat. The old test then fails with the exact CI assertion, and the new test passes.

Walkthrough

The scanner test fixture now accepts an optional ProcessRunner layer. The blocked-config test tracks completion of reads for two neighboring repository configs and waits for both before advancing the test clock.

Changes: Scanner test synchronization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Custom runner setup and read synchronization apps/server/src/project/AgentSessionScanner.test.ts	The fixture accepts an optional ProcessRunner layer and uses the default layer when none is supplied. The blocked-config test tracks and awaits both neighboring config reads before advancing the test clock.
